1. What are cookies and why do we use them on this website?

A cookie is a file that is downloaded to the user’s device when accessing certain web pages to store and retrieve information about the navigation that is carried out from said equipment.

Cookies allow said website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about the decisions and habits of the user. On this website we use them to improve the experience within our websites, identify and remember the registered user and facilitate navigation.

It is important to note that the use of cookies does not provide personal data of the user.

The user can configure their browser to not accept the use of cookies, in which case the personalization of the experience would not apply, although they can continue to access the contents of our websites normally.

On the Wikipedia page it is possible to obtain more information about what cookies are and how they work. Access Wikipedia here.

2. What type of cookies does our website use?

Cookies, depending on their permanence, can be divided into session or permanent cookies. The first ones expire when the user closes the browser. The second ones expire depending on when the objective for which they serve is fulfilled (for example, so that the user remains identified on the web) or when they are manually deleted.

Additionally, depending on their objective, Cookies can be classified as follows:

· Performance Cookies: this type of Cookie remembers your preferences for the tools found in the services, so you do not have to reconfigure the service each time you visit. As an example, this typology includes:

Volume settings for video or sound players.

The video transmission speeds that are compatible with your browser.

· Geolocation Cookies: these Cookies are used to find out which country you are in when a website or service is requested. This Cookie is completely anonymous, and is only used to help guide the content to your location.

· Registration Cookies: Registration Cookies are generated once the User has registered or subsequently opened their session, and are used to identify them on the web and services with the following objectives:

Keep the user identified so that, if he closes a service or website, the browser or the computer and at another time or another day he re-enters said service or website, he will continue to be identified, thus facilitating his navigation without having to re-identify himself. This functionality can be suppressed if the user presses the “Exit” functionality, so that this Cookie is eliminated and the next time the user enters the web, the user will have to log in to be identified.

Check if the user is authorized to access certain services or functions of the Web.

Additionally, some services may use third-party connectors such as Facebook, Twitter or Google. When the user registers in a service with credentials of a social network or third-party identification system, he authorizes the same to save a persistent cookie that remembers her identity and guarantees access to the web until it expires. The user can delete this cookie and revoke access to the web through social networks or third-party identification system by updating their preferences in the specific social network.

· Analytics Cookies: Every time a User visits a Website or Service, a tool from an external provider (Google Analytics, comScore and similar) generates an analytical cookie on the user’s device. This cookie, which is only generated during the visit, will serve to anonymously identify the visitor. The main objectives pursued are:

Allow the anonymous identification of browsing users through the “Cookie” (identifies browsers and devices, not people) and therefore the approximate count of the number of visitors and their trend over time.

Anonymously identify the most visited content and therefore the most attractive to users

Know if the user who is accessing is new or repeats visit.

· Advertising cookies: this type of cookies allows you to expand the information of the advertisements displayed to each anonymous user on the Web. Among others, the duration or frequency of display of advertising positions, the interaction with them, or the browsing patterns and / or behaviors of the user are stored as they help to form a profile of advertising interest. In this way, they allow to offer advertising related to the interests of the user.
